Indirect inference for survival data.

Bruce W. Turnbull, Wenxin Jiang (2003)

SORT

Similarity:

In this paper we describe the so-called indirect method of inference, originally developed from the econometric literature, and apply it to survival analyses of two data sets with repeated events. This method is often more convenient computationally than maximum likelihood estimation when handling such model complexities as random effects and measurement error, for example; and it can also serve as a basis for robust inference with less stringent assumptions on the data generating mechanism....

Likelihood for random-effect models (with discussion).

Youngjo Lee, John A. Nelder (2005)

SORT

Similarity:

For inferences from random-effect models Lee and Nelder (1996) proposed to use hierarchical likelihood (h-likelihood). It allows influence from models that may include both fixed and random parameters. Because of the presence of unobserved random variables h-likelihood is not a likelihood in the Fisherian sense. The Fisher likelihood framework has advantages such as generality of application, statistical and computational efficiency. We introduce an extended likelihood framework and...

Empirical likelihood for quantile regression models with response data missing at random

S. Luo, Shuxia Pang (2017)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

This paper studies quantile linear regression models with response data missing at random. A quantile empirical-likelihood-based method is proposed firstly to study a quantile linear regression model with response data missing at random. It follows that a class of quantile empirical log-likelihood ratios including quantile empirical likelihood ratio with complete-case data, weighted quantile empirical likelihood ratio and imputed quantile empirical likelihood ratio are defined for the...

Nonparametric bivariate estimation for successive survival times.

Carles Serrat, Guadalupe Gómez (2007)

SORT

Similarity:

Several aspects of the analysis of two successive survival times are considered. All the analyses take into account the dependent censoring on the second time induced by the first. Three nonparametric methods are described, implemented and applied to the data coming from a multicentre clinical trial for HIV-infected patients. Visser's and Wang and Wells methods propose an estimator for the bivariate survival function while Gómez and Serrat's method presents a conditional approach for...

Objective Bayesian point and region estimation in location-scale models.

José M. Bernardo (2007)

SORT

Similarity:

Point and region estimation may both be described as specific decision problems. In point estimation, the action space is the set of possible values of the quantity on interest; in region estimation, the action space is the set of its possible credible regions. Foundations dictate that the solution to these decision problems must depend on both the utility function and the prior distribution. Estimators intended for general use should surely be invariant under one-to-one transformations,...
